RED RIDING HOOD A NOVEL BY SARAH BLAKLEY-CARTWRIGHT BASED ON A SCREEN PLAY WRITTEN BY DAVID LESLIE JOHNSON INTRODUCTION BY CATHERINE HARDWICKE

 I believe based on the author list and things I've read on the internet this was written after the screen play for the movie was written. I do not like this factor it made the book seam more like i was reading a very detailed script not a novel. The book seamed to drag on and characters seamed almost incomplete. The story switches randomly to different views of the characters. The story is about a town who has been plagued by a ware wolf for years and after the main character Valerie's sister dies a priest who turns out to be evil, (and try's to control the town) is called to rid the town of the  ware wolf for ever.  She ends up in a tiny kinda not existing love triangle. And ends up learning fate and hers friends can not be trusted. I would recommend seeing the movie first when normally i would rather tell you to read the book first. (after almost forcing my self to continue reading it ) When you get to the end it leaves off UN finish the real end will probably be told in the movie. The ending for the book  comes out march 14 on the books website. this is the exact reason books should be written first not later.I don't mind when a book with a scheduled squeal levees you cutt off butt one that doesn't  why even spend the time and money. now if i want a copy of the book with the ending ill probably need to buy a new copy. That's even if they put the ending in the book ever. I was disappointed with the novel but am looking forward to the movie after all the plot and story idea was good. i don't recommend even purchasing a copy of the book. if you must read it go get one from your local library. Until next time.
